distance apart and all the farrows up with
coarse manure, keeping on this way until
all are planted. The object in planting
only few rows Mt a timo il, TO avoid
running the manure wagon over the fur
rows, of this would destroy them. After
the heldj is all planted, rake with hay
or stalk rake the stalks from the COW
pen on the potatoc plot, so that the GOV.
ering will be foot thick after settling.
This is all that is needed until harvest,
when the stalks are rakcd from the Do.
tatoes and thinly spread over the wheat
field, to be plowed under. The pota.
toes can be gathered without digging. as
they will either be on the top of the
ground or IN the loose manure. In the
South, potatoes raised in this way NAV
be left in the ground all winter and gath
cred imperfect condition in the spring.
The conditions of success with this
method are to use plenty of manure and
TO have the mulch at least foot thick.
Nothing is so good for mulch as corn
stalks, and in raising potatoes in q gar
den, the stalks may be piled on the edg o
OF the patch in gathering and may be
used for several years.

FARM NOTES,

To kill out the cst-worms pillow tho
ground soon enough to allow the frost to
penetrate.
Sow some radish and kale for your
poultry as soon as possible, and give them
free range upon it.

condition and greatly promotes the
health.
There Is nothing to prevent the farmer

can be taught him by Others
If your land is well underdrained Won

he can begin.
If old hay be cut and moistened before

Manuring land by blowing under some
kind of green crop, such as millet, buck
wheat, oats, or peas, should be the object
of every farmer. Glover is also excellent
and lime should be freely used at thu

If the seed is good the cutting of DO.
tatoss to pieces with two eyes should give
good results. In cutting always endeavor
to leave as much of the tuoer to the eyes
as possible, as it serves as plant food in
the early stages of growth.
Do not try to keep geese unless all the
conditions are favorable. Geese may be
kept at very small cost or they may en-

Graftino.

The next work at hand is grating and
budding trees which are planted In the
spring. Preparations should be made for
grating the natural apple trees, and 9th
er bearers of worthless fruit. to be found
on almost every farm throughout the
United States. The following schedule
of the modes of propagation, adapted to
the different trees and fruit bsaring
shrubs, will be found of value by no.
vices.
Apple and pear, by budding and graft
ing. Cherry, mostly by budding, but
succeeds well by grating, if done early.
Peach and nectariRe, by budding only,
at the north; often succeeds by grating
at the south. Plum, by graft ng and bud
ding, if the stocks are thrifty. Apricot,
mostly by budding, sometimes by graft
ing. Chestnut, by early grating. Wal
nut, by early grating and by annual bud
ding. Ounce, by cutting and grating.
Filbert, by suckers and layers; the finer
sorts may be grated on the more com
mon, which reduces the size OF the bush
and makes them more prolific. Grapes,
by layers and cuttings, and, in rare in
stances, grating is advantageously en-
ployedfor new and rare sorts on old or
wild stocks, producing rapid growth and
early bearing. Raspberries and blsckber-
rie., by suckers, cutting of roots and lay
ers. Goosbery and currant, by cuttings,
and sometimes by layers.
To insure good work one must have
sharp tools and good wax, and then it
will prove successful. To make good
wax take the following: Mix equal parts
of rosin, tallow and yellow beeswsI, and
make by heating. A coat of this wax,
about onetventieth OF an inch thick,
spread over muslin, calico, or flexible
paper, makes an excellent covering for
outdoor grating, or, spread half as
thick, is well adapted TO root grating.

ECONOMIC WAY Of Raising.Potatoes.

A most successful way of raising pota
toes in the South il by planting them IT
what is called a lazy bed, which is done
by applying manure very heavily in the
rows and then covering ths whole bed
with straw, leaves, corn-stalks or any
coarse litter By this plan, no working
or wedding is required and the growth is
not stopped by the first hot, dry weather,
as the ground is kept cool and moist
which greatly increases the yield of the
potatoes and..makes them of much better
quality.
good plan, Sy which several objects
are combined, IS to select field which Is

Yesterday Mr.. Gould sat on a sofa in

paper reporter contented. If Mr.. Gould
didn't succeed that was merely because the
reporter happened to be narrow minded,
not tina. Mr.. Gould's philosophy was weak
kneed.

all, what does man get in this world ex-
cept something to eat something to wear
and somewhere to liver"
His conumdrum unanswered by his list
ner Mr.. Gould answered it himself.
"The poor man ought to be the happi-

Very mistaken ideas exist on this sub ect
With so much promised, Mr.. Gould pro-

too rich to know any more.
"Ah," he said, II often recur to the days
when l was boy up in Delaware county.
I was a pretty lad. There wasen't much

would feel just to go out and drive the

of the happiest beings alive" he added.
He may leave to so out into the buster
